Facial-recognition has a mapping aspect and it can't wrap around open-vs.-closed mouth head topographies. IMHO, the technology is not mature enough to be deployed by government-citizen applications, such as Virginia's driver's license program. If it helps anyone, you should be able to smile a little-bit (closed-mouth, though). Government seems especially vulnerable to immature technologies, in my experience.
I have absolutely NO trouble not smiling when I have to go to the DMV and get my picture taken. I have trouble not SNARLING!
